GeoSignage infotainment now available “as a service” on FourC’s Open Service Platform
Trondheim/Norway, June 7, 2019 --- As a long-lasting proponent of open systems and lock-in-free solutions, FourC is proud to present GeoSignage AB’s innovative GeoSignage infotainment as yet another service available on FourC’s Open Service Platform. Any standard vehicle computer or gateway can now have GeoSignage running on the very same device that runs other services like Passenger Wi-Fi, Passenger Flow Analysis, Movietime, Webviewer, Beaconizer or Ticketing.
“Infotainment and digital signage are natural parts of the expected service levels in public transport today. For quite some time we have been looking for a cost-efficient, feature-rich and easy-to-use system for location-aware infotainment with various public transport interfaces. It is a pleasure to now be able to offer GeoSignage’s services to our valued partners and customers”, says FourC’s CEO Tor Rune Skoglund.
Johan Posse, CEO of GeoSignage, says “We are proud and excited to be part of FourC’s Open Service Platform as this will make our system more available for public transport companies. We believe our Content Management System will be appreciated by FourC’s customers as we see an increased market interest of CMSs developed with a clear focus on public transportation. I look forward to a successful partnership with FourC.”
The GeoSignage player runs in a safe, virtual environment on the same standard vehicle computer as other services from other vendors with the help of FourC’s Open Service Platform. The service can be installed over-the-air without the need to add more hardware to the vehicle. The first commercial system is already up and running in Hordaland county in Norway.
